CRL.M.C. 1984/2018 1.

Present petition has been filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. for quashing of FIR No.51/2017 registered under Sections 498A/406/34 IPC at PS Malviya Nagar. It is stated that the matter has been settled amicably with the complainant / respondent No.2 before the Principal Judge, Family Courts, Saket, New Delhi vide settlement agreement 23.12.2017.

2.

Complainant / respondent No.2 is present with counsel and has been identified by the Investigating Officer. I have enquired from the

complainant if she has settled the dispute with the petitioners amicably without any fear or pressure. She has informed that all the disputes between the parties have been resolved amicably with her free consent and she has no objection to the quashing of the FIR in question. Divorce by mutual consent has already been taken place. Pursuant to the settlement, remaining amount of `80,000/- by way of demand draft bearing No.003196 dated 12.04.2018 drawn on Axis Bank has been given to the complainant in the Court today. 3.

The petition is supported by affidavits of the parties. Copy of settlement agreement dated 23.12.2017 has been placed on record. Since the dispute between the parties has been settled, no useful purpose will be served to continue with the proceedings. In the interest of justice and to enable the parties to settle in life after divorce, FIR No.51/2017 registered under Sections 498A/406/34 IPC at PS Malviya Nagar and all the proceedings arising therefrom are quashed.

4.

The petition stands disposed of accordingly.
